How an opensource project is in a big trouble because it have close source alternative ? It's the other way around. As soon as close source alternative aren't as customizable as opensource ones they will come looking opensource alternative and how it grows.

It's not about opensource vs closesource, it's about free *service* based on opensouce vs free *service* based on closesource.

Uh, what the hell is that cursor follow circle thing? https://cs.joshstrange.com/e5RKH0

It's like if someone said "Can we come up with something worse/more annoying than overriding scroll behavior?"

I couldn't read the article, that cursor thing was way too distracting. Also I have a hard time taking someone seriously who would add that to their website.

Don’t worry, you didn’t miss anything. The article is trash. Completely irrelevant.
